Constantly on the hunt and suffering from hallucinations that drive his violent nature, an unnamed man is capturing women and savagely beating them to death. Meanwhile, a woman is luring men into a violent end, by way of her knife. Driven by the same force to make the opposite sex suffer, the killers’ fates intertwine. The two must face off in a battle to the death, in which they are forced to reveal the horrible truth behind their addiction to murder.
“Brutal” takes an interesting approach to its visuals, drawing heavy influence from Western “Grindhouse” films, using a filter to make the footage appear grainy, damaged, and with light and color fluctuations. Unfortunately, the visual styling ends up feeling misguided, as other than applying the filter it does not imitate any other aspects of the “Grindhouse” genre. Despite trying to dirty up the film, it is apparent it was shot on digital. The cinematography is also a step above most “Grindhouse” productions, with Takashi Hirose proving he has talent behind the camera. Exterior shots to those taking place in small spaces are all competently framed, lit, and transition well. The decision to add an effect on top of the work hurts the film’s imagery and even gives a sense of desperation to try to capture a certain type of nostalgia with the audience, instead of relying on its own strengths. It is unfortunate when one creative choice can hurt a production so much.
The story of “Brutal” is simple but effective, it does attempt some sort of social commentary about the violent nature of men and women, but it does not offer enough depth into the subject to justify the amount of violence on display. The film does end on a strong note with an interesting twist, with a reveal that is bound to gross some out, while giving others a chuckle. In spite of its simple nature, those who enjoy films that make them somewhat uncomfortable and enjoy the challenge of getting through some ultra-violence, “Brutal” poses a fun and entertaining challenge in that regard.
日本朋友说第一次看哭的小说。。还行，比同期上档的那部余10年要好看点
能看出来它们打算做两个点的创新，但是最后还是沦为了流水线工业电影，很无趣的故事
好老套的剧情……最后那里惊艳了一下 其他平平无奇
五毛樱花特效能不能放过我……岛演技提升了不少，这次看着终于不尬了，感谢导演耐心调演员只能说。剧情很俗，但整体调性拍得还蛮不错的，但基于整体剧情和两位主演的演技上限，也只能到此了。
很久没看过女主比男主演技还差的电影了，剧情也非常狗血老套，土得充满套路。但是事后才意识到搀扶的老太是心上人这点真是太虐了。
就甜了半小时 剩下的虐哭了 空镜也很伤感 没拍女主的照片这细节戳人 女主的配饰好看蹲同款
看之前大概知道了设定，没有想象中的伤感，感觉镜头和角色都刻意回避了最沉重的部分，大概是不想离春天的意象太远吧。细节表现和情感处理都很到位，后半像一场湿漉漉的春雨，没有强烈的情感爆发但呼吸间都是纤细的潮气。摄影师的设定很贴切，镜头妄图将瞬间定格为永远，就像晴人对美咲描绘她无法到达的他们的未来，看的时候害怕起很多事经不起等待了。里面的爱情和亲情都足够美好，不过后者更戳我一点。哥哥笨拙却努力地哄妹妹开心，嫂子融入这个家的心意和努力，在疾病不可抗拒的侵蚀下努力营造幸福家庭的样子，都让我非常感动。美咲直到最后也没敢和晴人再见面，是害怕自己在爱人心中的美好形象破裂吗？但亲人能永远无条件地接纳和关照她。代入后哭得停不下来。最后夸夸中岛进步巨大的演技，晴人身上完全看不到中岛健人的影子，再也不说他演技不好了！
要不是ty可能根本不会看这种纯爱电影，但是最后的镜头真的有掉眼泪🙏🏻
早衰症题材第一次看👀我以为男主会认出老去的女主，结果并没有（预判了我的预判）男主发现粉毛帽子的时候读信真的有伤到，感觉日影很神奇的是，它带来的效益不是立刻显现的，是偶尔哪一天看到类似的事情，然后密密麻麻在心上抓挠的心痛感。
男女主角挺养眼的，情节一般吧吧，不知道为啥男主因为没能认出女主，竟然崩溃到想要自杀…这里哥哥的爱让我感动到了
中岛老师发生甚么事了 松本穗香的演技怎么会这样啊………..
今天也被刀麻了哈🙃
绝症老套，而且女主的鼻孔有它的想法，某些片段让我感觉大哥更像男主。
黑骑君以后再见中岛老师 sexy thank you 🤗。 ps.最后真的大哭
感觉中岛健人演技还是有一定进步，剧情就很狗血了
肉眼凡胎要怎样跟命运的突然发威相抵抗，更加理解了“死得一蹴而就甚至是人一生所求”是什么意思。以及骗患者和家属钱的人真罪该万死。
30了中年大叔居然还心里默默期盼小手紧握真的能有奇迹……可惜还是没能一起
让我想起了以前我也总是躲在某个角落默默的看着那个男孩子 明明有很多想和他说 可是又不敢上前 以及中岛老师那段自白 是我自认为全片最出众的地方 真情实感哭泣了
被调色后的电影截图美到才去看的，可是真的好无聊
感觉很正面，没啥乱七八糟的剧情。在现实与情理之中的爱情。
